Explore our selection of tug boats currently available
Our tug boat listings include both new and used vessels. You’ll find options for harbour assistance, coastal towing and offshore support. Many units come directly from active service, offering excellent performance at competitive prices. From compact harbour tugs to larger ocean-going models, we aim to meet every operational requirement.
Types of tug boats and specifications
Tug boats differ in design and performance. We list ASD tugs, conventional tugs and harbour tugs, each with specific features. Key factors include bollard pull, engine power and manoeuvrability. ASD (Azimuth Stern Drive) tugs are ideal for precision handling, while conventional tugs suit longer tow distances. Depending on your need, we provide full details on towing capacity, fuel type and dimensions. Every listing includes photos, technical data and build year.
